Memorandum
To: Jeff Powell (Jeff@roudabush.com)
From: Paty Saternye, Senior Planner
Division: Planning
Date: Final: November 29, 2017
Subject: SUB201700152 Westlake Hills Phase III - Final
Fax 434-972-4126
The County of Albemarle Planning Division will recommend approval of the plat referenced above once the
following comments have been satisfactorily addressed (The following comments are those that have been
identified at this time. Additional comments or conditions may be added or eliminated based on further review.):
[Each comment is preceded by the applicable reference, which is to the Subdivision/Zoning Ordinances unless
otherwise specified.]
Conditions of Preliminary Plat Approval (from letter dated 11/16/12):
[14-302(A)4 & 5] Private and Public easements. Any necessary easements must be documented and
approved during the road plan or WPO application process.
Final: Comment not fully addressed. Address the following:
• Show all Mitigation area as shown on previous plat SUB2016-79.
• Provide the required documentation to support and create all easements.
• All deeds and aareements that are reauired for the easements and maintenance must be
submitted, reviewed by the County Attorney's office and recorded prior to approval of this
plat.
• A Deed of Easement for the public drainage easements must be approved by the County
Attorney's Office and recorded with this plat; please submit for review.
• There is a label for a storm drain easement on sheet 7 that states, "New 23' Storm Drain
Easement". However no easement seems to be show in that area. Either ensure that any
associated easement is visible or remove the label if it is incorrect.
2. [14-302(A)7] Existing and departing lot lines. All existing property lines must be accurately shown and
labeled.
Final: Revise the existing lots to show the previously approved subdivision lot lines. The boundary
line that was adiusted in SUB2016-158 is not represented correctly on the subdivision plat.
3. [14-302(A)8 & 13.4.1] Proposed lots. Due to the application of the street tree bonus factor, all lots are to
be a minimum of 20,OOOsf with a minimum lot frontage of 80'. Street trees must also be provided on all
roads as indicated on the preliminary plat.
Final: Comment not fully addressed. See comment #6 below.
[14-302(B)3] Public areas, facilities or uses. Coordinate with the Department of Parks and Recreation to
establish the exact location of the greenway area and any other facilities as noted in the Comprehensive
Plan. Please refer to comments provided by Parks during preliminary plat review.
Final: The greenway plat has been approved and recorded. Revise the label for the Public Greenway
Easement on the lower riaht corner of the site on sheet 2 such that it is placed in a way, possibly
with arrows like the other labels, which makes the location of the easement obvious.
5. [14-302(A)9] Building sites on proposed lots. The Board of Supervisors approved a critical slope waiver
request for this subdivision. An overlot grading plan must be submitted as a condition of approval of this
waiver.
Final: Comment addressed. The cverlot grading plan was submitted with SUB201400067.
6. [14-302(B)8 & 4.6.1(c)] Yards. This subdivision includes many non-standard setback/yard lines to
establish the setback or yard where the minimum lot width is achieved; therefore, all setback/yard lines must
be shown on the final plat.
Final: Comment not fully addressed. Setbacks are extended further into the lot when the lot is not
uniformly shaped and the minimum lot width (80') is not achieved at the setback line as designated
by the zoning. Therefore, the cul-de-sac lots 79 through 82 must have setbacks based upon an
approved method. As specified for "future reference" in Rev. 3 comments for the Phase II
subdivision plat (SUB2016-79) the front setback for lot frontage of less than 80' on a cul-de-sac are
meant to be represented with a straight setback line at the point at which the width of the lot is 80'.
Attached is a step by step example of the process the County is using to construct the setbacks
lines in these cases. Apply this method to the front setbacks for the specified lots. Please contact
the plan reviewer with any questions on how to apply the method.
Final Plat Comments:
[2.2.3] Minimum open space required. Open space D is not labeled on sheet 3. Revise the sheet to include
the area's letter designation and acreage.
8. [14-302(A)1] Name of subdivision. Revise the coversheet of the plat to include the name of the
subdivision.
9. [14-302(A)2] Vicinity map. Revise the scale of the vicinity map to be precise and not +/-.
10. [14-302(A)8 &14- 303(D)] Proposed lots; Acreage of lots. Address the following:
• Revise sheets 7 and 8 to include lot number labels on all proposed lots.
• Revise the acreage of the Phase II residue to match that shown in the approved and recorded plat (DB
4883 PG464-477) or provide information and documentation why the size shown on this plat is correct.
This change should be made on Sheets 1 & 2
• The approved Phase II subdivision plat (SUB2016-79) and the proposed plat show slightly different
areas for Phase II open space on the coversheet. Update the areas on the plat or specify why these
values are the correct ones.
11. [14-302(A)11] Instrument creating property proposed for subdivision. Provide the deed book and page
number of the recorded subdivision plat that created the Phase II residue on Sheet 2 of the subdivision plat
in the residue's label under the acreage.
12. [14-302(B)6] Tax Map and parcel number. Revise the plat to include the TMP for the Phase II Residue lot
on Sheet 2 and in the area summary on page 1. Please note that the Albemarle County GIS shows the
parcel as TMP 56-53R.
13. [14- 303(C), (H) & (1)] Boundary lines; Monuments; Bearing and distance ties. Address the following:
• Provide a monument marker for the division point between the 189.06' and 442.79' distances in the
lower left corner of sheet 6.
• Provide iron pin found labels along the boundary line with the previously platted Phase II area and the
existing road right of way.
• There appears to be no differentiation between the symbols for the IF and IS on all the sheets. Either
provide more labels or provide different symbols and a legend.
14. [14- 303(J)] Restrictions. Address the following:
• On the coversheet under "Density (Phase III)" the values given do not match those provide in the same
area of the Phase II plat. Since this is supposed to be a calculation for the allowable density of a cluster
development with a density bonus for street trees the values should match. Either revise the plat or
provide information on why the values provided are correct although inconsistent.
• This plat has two different sections on the coversheet for "Density Proposed" and "Density Platted" for
Phase III. Only "Density Proposed" was provided on the plat for Phases I & II. In this plat, these two
sections also show different information for Phase III. Either clarify why both of these section are
required and revise any errors (including acreage and dwelling units per acre) or provide a similar
format, and sections of information, to the one included on the previously approved plat(s).
• There appears to be a missing area of "Landscape easement" on sheet 8. It should be in the upper
right of the page between the end of the "New 20' Sanitary Sewer Easement" and the "New 10' Storm
Drain Easement". Add this missing section of easement.
15. [14- 303(S)] Control points. Provide at least four (4) control points, evenly distributed across the property
and located at survey property corners, and shown on each sheet depicting the property. At the option of the
subdivider, the control points may be shown on a copy of the final plat, rather than on the original final plat.
16. [14-317] Instrument evidencing maintenance of certain improvements. An instrument for the maintenance
of privately owned improvements (street trees, common areas, etc.) must be submitted for review.
The maintenance of the street trees that will be outside of the right-of-way and inside the "10' Landscaping
and Maintenance Easement", as well as the maintenance of the proposed open spaces, are examples of
such improvements. A highlighted version of the maintenance document(s), specifying where each of the
items in the County Attorney's checklist are located in the document, must been submitted. Attached
please find the checklist. If any of the items in the checklist are not included in the document also include a
highlighted version of any other supplemental documents that cover those checklist items. This document
must be approved by the County Attorney's office before approval of this plat and must be recorded with the
plat.
17. [Comment] There is a typographical error in the spelling of "critical" in note number 20 on the coversheet.
Revise the coversheet to correct this error.
18. [Comment] Revise the "Existing and Proposed Densities and Open Spaces for all Phases" to have lines
right above the totals. These lines were provided in SUB2016-79, which can be used as an example.
19. [Comment] Revise the "Existing and Proposed Densities and Open Spaces for all Phases" "Open Space
E(1) Phase ll" values to match those provided in the approved and recorded plat for Phase II or clarify why
they are correct.
20. [Comment] See the attached comments from the other reviewers. This plat cannot be approved until
planning, the Count ttorney's Office, Engineering and E911 and have no objections.
